​Silence of Being | Yoga & Silence retreat with Rolandjan & Dieke

Every humanBeing wishes to be happy.

And the good news is: Happiness is already our true Nature.

This long weekend retreat is meant to remember your peaceful state of Being and to abide as that. Qualities such as contentment, clarity and joy flow naturally forth from your inmost being. What we are truly looking for is ourselves. Or, as St. Francis of Assisi described it: What you are looking for is already where you are looking from’.

Morning times we will do yoga, (gentle) emotional body work & circular breathing to release the body from trauma, stress and tensions. When the body is relaxed and open it is less likely that we identify with limiting thought-patterns and we can easily inquiry into the nature of what we timelessly are.

Through meditation, Yin yoga, self inquiry and once a day room for Q&A we will come to a clear knowing. Besides that there is enough time to walk in the beautiful nature (forrest and lake) or just to Be (see daily schedule below).

We will remain two full days in silence, except 1 meditation and Q&A moment each day. This social silence is an invitation to let your attention rest in the stillness of Being; your essence.

In those two days we will refrain from socializing, reading, internet, and any other form of communication. This is truly helpful to keep resting our attention in the source place within, getting more and more used to just being aware and to observe mind instead of getting identified with it.

You are most welcome to take part in this deepening weekend if you are dedicated to self inquiry, you followed at least 1 class with Rolandjan and/ or Dieke, and when you are looking forward to be together in (social) silence.
